Chapter 39 Chapter 39 Brother, You Are Back
Ye Anyu got out of the car and originally wanted to take a taxi to go home directly, but as soon as he took out his mobile phone, he heard a familiar voice ringing in his ears.
Ye Anyu looked up at the voice. Wu Yao had parked the car by the side of the road, rolled down the window, and asked, "Anyu, why are you here? Weren't you with Mr. Lu just now?"
"My brother has something at his company that needs his attention."
"What's so important that they left you here alone?" Wu Yao said angrily.
"He wanted to take me home first, but I refused. I asked him to go to the company to deal with things first. I have already wasted so much of his time in the past two days." Ye Anyu said.
"You are his wife. What's wrong with delaying his time for your wife?" Wu Yao got out of the car and walked in front of Ye Anyu.
Ye Anyu knew that Wu Yao was only thinking about her, so she looked at Wu Yao with a smile and said coquettishly, "Aren't you here?"
"At critical moments, we still have to rely on our sisters."
"Of course, it's my blessing to have you." Ye Anyu said from his heart.
"Let's go, get in the car, and think about whether we should go out and play or go home." Wu Yao took Ye Anyu's arm, pulled her to the car, and the two got in.
"Gugu~"
As soon as she sat in the car, Ye Anyu heard the crisp sound of her stomach growling. She turned her head to look at Wu Yao, who chuckled and said, "I haven't eaten since I got up, so I'm a little hungry now."
"I'm treating you to a meal. What would you like to eat?"
"I need to think about it carefully. I'll give you a good meal." Wu Yao rested her chin on her right hand and put her arm on her left hand. After a moment, she said, "My friend recently recommended a delicious steak restaurant to me. I haven't had the chance to try it yet. Why don't we go and try it today?"
"OK."
"Your friend, what friend?" Ye Anyu blinked at Wu Yao.
The friend Wu Yao was talking about was her recently engaged fiancé. When Ye Anyu said this, Wu Yao blushed.
"What? Are you still embarrassed?" Ye Anyu continued to tease.
"No, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. I just haven't adapted to this identity yet." Wu Yao explained hurriedly.
Without adaptation, it is indeed difficult to adapt to this kind of thing instantly.
Ye Anyu thought of the time when she had just married Lu Mingzhou.
When she first married Lu Mingzhou, Ye Anyu was very happy. Since she was a child, she had been told that the person she was going to marry was Lu Xingzhi, the eldest son of the Lu Group.
From ancient times till now, marriages between aristocratic families have never been voluntary; some are based on the principle of being well-matched and putting interests first.
She once thought about getting to know Lu Xingzhi better and falling in love with him. That way, when they got married, she would have an excuse to marry the person she loved.
But things went against her wishes. Perhaps some things were destined when she first arrived at the Ye family. She first met Lu Mingzhou.
The appearance of Lu Mingzhou brought a bit of comfort to the young girl, and also brought a ray of light to the frightened and helpless girl at that time, but the awakening of love was not something she could control.
In the heart of the young Ye Anyu at that time, Lu Mingzhou was like the sudden dew in the desert, like a star that suddenly lit up in the darkness, and like a cool breeze that suddenly came in the hot summer.
After so many years, she still couldn't forget Lu Mingzhou, but she also knew that there was no possibility between her and Lu Mingzhou. As she got older and her engagement with Lu Xingzhi got closer, Ye Anyu kept comforting herself, suppressing the emotions in her heart and hiding them in the deepest part of her heart.
The day before the wedding, a piece of news suddenly sounded like thunder in her ears. Lu Xingzhi was missing. Ye Anyu was secretly happy that she didn't have to get married. However, another piece of news exploded in her ears even more like thunder out of the blue. She still had to get married, but the person she was going to marry had changed. That person became Lu Mingzhou.
She became the person who was weighed down in her heart. It would be a lie to say that she was unhappy, but she was more nervous than happy. Since Lu Mingzhou went to college, he seldom went home, and she had very few opportunities to meet him. Later, they only saw each other once or twice a year.
Ye Anyu knew very well that in this world, the most untrustworthy thing was the human heart. The human heart was fickle. No matter how good the relationship was in the past, many things would change with the passage of time, and feelings were the easiest to change and the most insignificant thing among them.
So when she married Lu Mingzhou, she did not expect Lu Mingzhou to like her, but she was very naive at that time and thought that as long as she spent time with Lu Mingzhou for a long time, she would gradually develop feelings for him.
But that night, her expectations were dashed. She heard Lu Mingzhou's words, and then the contract. In the end, everything was a lie. No matter what, she was still a person who was arranged to marry.
Even so, Ye Anyu still felt somewhat happy living with Lu Mingzhou. After getting married, she and Lu Mingzhou lived under the same roof. This feeling was also very strange. She was not used to it at first.
I am not used to seeing Lu Mingzhou every day, and I am not used to watching Lu Mingzhou's back as he leaves home every day.
Even after hearing those words and signing the three-year contract, Ye Anyu still held a glimmer of hope in his heart. Perhaps through his own efforts he could change their relationship and make Lu Mingzhou fall in love with him.
But this is also a luxury, because Lu Mingzhou goes out early and comes back late every day, and the time she has to communicate with him is very short. She finally mustered up the courage to talk to him, but was rejected by his cold eyes.
Over time, the two of them formed a relatively stable relationship. When they met, they would just nod, say "hmm", "oh", and "ah", and nothing else would happen.
Thinking of this, Ye Anyu felt that Lu Mingzhou was now a completely different person from before, which was why Ye Anyu couldn't believe that Lu Mingzhou would fall in love with her.
Wu Yao is actually much luckier than her. It seems that Wu Yao and her fiancé are also a marriage between aristocratic families in a business relationship, but after all, they have been in love and are together because they truly love each other.
"Anyu, I'm very curious why you always say that Senior Lu Mingzhou doesn't like you and doesn't love you." Wu Yao asked this question without any ill intentions, she was just really curious. From her point of view, Lu Mingzhou was really good to her and it was not like Ye Anyu said that he had no feelings for her.
"Because our marriage is an arranged marriage, and besides..." Ye Anyu actually hasn't figured out how to tell Wu Yao about those inner reasons. After all, she has never told these things to outsiders so far.
"What's more?" Wu Yao asked.
"nothing."
"It's okay, Anyu. If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Just tell me when you've decided what to say."
"Yeah." Ye Anyu nodded.
The steak restaurant that Wu Yao's fiancé introduced was not too far away from them, and it only took 20 minutes to drive there. This steak restaurant adopted a reservation model. Originally, all the reservations were full. Fortunately, a group of couples could not come because of something, so the two of them got a chance to get in.
Of course, just as Wu Yao’s fiancé said, the steak in this restaurant tastes really good, with a tough and tender texture, rich meat, fresh and juicy, leaving a lasting impression.
After the two of them had their meal, they went shopping in the mall before going home. Wu Yao was a person who loved buying clothes and bags, but Ye Anyu was not interested in these things, so Wu Yao was the one trying on clothes and bags all the way. Then she waved her hand and bought a lot of clothes and bags, and the trunk was filled with packages of all sizes.
Ye Anyu stared at the package in the trunk in amazement. She only knew that Wu Yao liked to buy clothes and bags when she was in college, but she always said that she had restrained herself. When she saw her today, Ye Anyu realized that what she said was true.
The two of them returned to the community with their trophies. There were too many things to carry back, so Ye Anyu drove the car directly to Wu Yao's building.
Ye Anyu pointed to the few remaining packages in the trunk and said, "Ayao, I forgot about these."
Wu Yao shook her head and said with a smile: "An Yu, these are gifts from me to you. You look so pretty, but it would be a waste of your looks and good figure to only wear these every day."
Then Wu Yao approached Ye Anyu, winked at her, and whispered, "Put on these clothes, I guarantee you'll charm Senior Lu."
Hearing this, Ye Anyu's face instantly turned red and her skin felt hot.
After sending Wu Yao off, Ye Anyu returned home and took the clothes Wu Yao gave her to her bedroom.
Ye Anyu has tried these clothes before. She feels that the colors are too bright and they reveal too much skin, making them unsuitable for everyday wear.
Wu Yao, on the other hand, used the excuse that she liked it and bought it all at once. Unexpectedly, Wu Yao bought it to give to her.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved.
Ye Anyu looked at the clothes and put on one of them, a bright red halter dress. She had tried this dress before, so it fit her well.
Ye Anyu walked to the mirror. She was wearing a red dress in the mirror. Her figure was well-proportioned and her skin was as white as snow, which complemented her clothes perfectly. Although she was not wearing any makeup, she had a unique temperament.
Ye Anyu remembered what Wu Yao said, "Put on these clothes, I'm sure I'll charm Senior Lu."
Maybe I can really try it myself.
Ye Anyu slapped his forehead, wondering what he was thinking. He actually wanted to use Wu Yao's bad idea.
At this moment, there was a sound of a door opening downstairs. Ye Anyu looked down from the window and saw that it was Lu Mingzhou who came back. She thought he was dealing with company matters today and would have to work overtime until very late, but she didn't expect him to come home so soon.
Lu Mingzhou did so much for her today and protected her everywhere. She must thank him very much.
Ye Anyu unzipped the side of her suspender skirt, intending to change her clothes. She just pulled it a little and her hand stopped in mid-air. Then, as if possessed by a demon, she pulled the zipper back, put on a coat, opened the door, and walked downstairs.
"Brother, you're back."
Hearing the sound, Lu Mingzhou looked over and then stopped taking off his clothes in mid-air.
